AN EARTHQUAKE
1t Raises Havoc in California and
Nevada.

Ncvde1ds
SAN FRANCISCO, June 3.-An earth
quake swept over the greater portion of
Northern California and Western
Nevada between and 8 o'clock this
morning. Reports from different points
seem to place the center of the wave at
the same place, on the boundary line
between the two states. One house near
Geneva, Nev., after the earthquake,
was surrounded by cracks in the
ground from one inch to a
foot in width. Another stroke
equally as heavy would have
destroyed every brick house in town.
At Sacramento it shook houses, making
them rumble as if the windows were
being Jared by gusts of wind. The
shock was also felt in the Yosemite
valley. At Carson City. New, pictures
and plastering fell from the walls. A
large amount of plaster fell from the
supreme court room in the capitol
building. The hot springs are reported
dried up. Virginia City, Truckee,
Marysyille, Chicoa and Nevada City are
a few of the many other points affected
by the Shock.

are the only causes assigned for the
deed.

ChurchiIl's Talk.

LONDON, June Sat a meeting at
Wolverhampton this evening, Lord
Randolph Churchill advised the Union
lists to make solid stand and show
Gladstone they were equally as deter
mined as himself in the matter of the
Irish question. He was gratified to be-
lieve in the power of the government to
smash obstruction at any moment they
pleased. The government had been
very patient but the limit had been
reached, and when parliament re-
to be adopted to prevent the
crimes bill from being amended till it
became useless. Returning to the ques-
ton of economy, Lord Churchill warmly
opposed Lord Wolseley's alarmist state
ment. He quoted statistics showing
that the present expenditures for the
defense of the country were $4,000, 900
more than DiSraeli considered necessary
in 1875. He would remark, however,
that the effective strength had not in
creased in the same ratio. He con-
trasted the expenditures of England on
her army and navy with those of France
and Germany.
Despite vast expenditures the war and
navy departments had not at home IA
cilitieS nor land transportation for 90
600 men. Lord Randolph then related
several anecdotes to illustrate the truth
of his statement. After the bombarding
of Alexandria the ironcladS Fulton and
Alexandria had not ten rounds of heavy
she'll left, and as there was no reserve
at Malta they would have been utterly
at the mercy of the French fleet.
In the Khartoum expedition the shells
were too large for the guns and so badly
made that they could not explode.
During the critical state of Europe at
the close of last year, there was not
single cartridge in store for the machine
guns. He heard from the highest au-
thority recently that the Monarch came
int the harbor wanting heavy guns for
her turret, but there were none to give
her and she had to rob Portsmouth
and Spithead of guns capable of only
seventy rounds. In 1884 the ordnance
committee designed forty-three-ton guns
and asked the Armstrong; to construct
fifteen of them. The Armstrong; pro-
tested that the design was bad, but they
were told to mind their business and
make the guns. When they were made
Capt. Noble refused to send them to sea,
saying they would burst. He also was
told to mind his own business. Four of
the guns were put aboard the Colling-
wood, and on the second round, firing
half charge, one Of them burst. The
whole was then condemned at loss of
G200 900.

DUBLIN, June 3.-The evictions at

offering all the opposition in their power
to the sheriff and his guard of police
and troops, and find various means to
seriously annoy the officers. In some
OF the houses from which the occupants
were to be evicted cayenne pepper was
burned, the fumes of which nearly
choked the bailiffs. Boiling water was
also thrown from the windows upon the
eyicting force. At two places where
evicti0ns were effected collisions oc-
CURED between the police and the
people, and number of arrests were
made.
When the sheriff's force arrived at the
house of tenant Lyddy and ordered the
family to leave, a daughter of Mr..
Lyddy threw an iron hoop at bailiff
when attempting to enter the house.

THE GIRL WAS ARRESTED.

A brother of the crowd was also ar
rested for melting the crowd to violence
against the police. Another daughter
OF the tenant who denounced the treat
ment her family were receiving was
struck by policeman and felled to the
ground. This maddened the crowd and
they advanced for the purpose of at
tacking the officers. Michael Davitt,
who was present at the eviction, pleaded
with the people not to use violence,
however, and barely managed to avert
a collision. After the Lyddy family had
been evicted the police made an attack
upon the house of man named Me-
Namara, which was strongly fortified.
CrOwbarS were used and a hole was
made through the wall. Mrs. McNa-
mara and children were in the house
and cried piteously. Mr.. Davitt shouted
words of comfort to them. Mr.. Nc
Namara was arrested for pelting the
bailiffs with dung. The bailiffs smashed
the furniture of the house out of pure
malice. The force after leaving the
house proceeded to that occupied by
tenant Hussy for the purpose of eject
extremely warm work before them.
When the eyicting force reached Hus-
sy's they were received with shower
OF boiling water, stones and bottles,
and swarm of bees was let
loose upon them. The tenants only de-
sisted from pelting the bailitfs when the
troops threatened to fire. The bailiffs
demolished the wall and entered the
house, but were repulsed bleeding. The
eviction was only effected after strug-
gle of two hours and half. The male
defenders of the house were arrested.
A meeting of tenants was afterward
held, at which Michael Davitt repeated
the advice he gave them yesterday, to
resist eviction by every means. He de-
fed the government to arrest him.

$1,000 for Tennessee. The various
branches of the brewers association in
the separate states are also actively at
work doing all in their power to op-
pose and hinder temperance legisla-
ton. In many doubtful Massachusetts
towns in a recent election orders were
given local organizations of liquor
dealers to draw on the treasurer of the
Boston association for needed funds.
The enemy is waking up. He is just
beginning to realize that prohibition
lists are getting dissatisfied with the
crumbs that fall from the tables of the
politicians. They want the earth, and
it really begins to look as if they were
going to get it. Rum recognizes the
signs of the times, hence these tears
and this lavish use of money. Mean
while the prohibition fight Is on in
nearly every state of the Union. Fresh
temperance legislation is reported from
every quarter where prohibitOry laws
have not before been known, and a
more strict construction and observ-
ance of the law in sections where it
comes to be we'll nigh a dead letter.
The signs of the times are hopeful.

Simply Business Thrift.
49, LI...-.....


There are those who see a craftily
cOntrived scheme for political capital
in the abOlishing of the internal reve-
nue. collection district of Vermont.
Those who take this view have a
wonderful acuteness of vision. The
ordinary mortal sees in it only the
natural result of business thrift. The
consolidation of these districts began
years ago. AS the taxes were removed
from various articles from time to
time of course the business of this
bureau decreased and correct business
principles indicated a uniting of con-
tignOus districts under one head. This
process has gone on, and the abolish
ing of the Vermont district is only one
out of twenty-five ordered at the same
time. If it were not for the prohib-
itory law in this state probably the
office of internal revenue collector
would be continued and would be able
to earn its salary. 1t may be that
prohibition does not prohibit, but it
comes near enough to it so that the
lawbreakers are not numerous enough
to make it profitable for the govern
ment to keep a special officer to look
after them

Threshing Old Straw.

Very liberal extracts of Senator
Sherman's speech at Springfield, Hi
nois, are given on the second page.
The address attracts attention for sew
eral reasons. Senator Sherman is one
of the most prominent candidates at
the present time as republican nominee
for president next year, and as such
his utterance is important and eagerly
watched. AS the possible nominee of
one of the great political parties it
must be regretted by many that he
bases his principal argument for re-
publican supremacy upon issues as old ,
or nearly as old, as the rebellion of
'61-5. There ought to be issues be-
tween the parties newer, fresher and
of more vital Importance but if the
party follow Sherman it must thresh
over the straw of 1884. Will the re-
publican party accept this issue ?
Will it survive another campaign like
that of 'S4.

1876 was crushing blow, and removed
his last near relative. He had been q
man of many activities up to that
time, and the presidency of the senate
was not to his liking. His attitude
toward the ornamental Office is en-
bodied in the story that when some
visitors entered his room and inquired
If that was the room "where a vice.
president was stricken with paraly-
sis f"-referring to Henry Wilson's at
tack-Mr. Wheeler replied, eyes, and
every other president, too" With
his retirement from the vice-presi-
dency, Mr.. Wheeler returned to north
ern New York, and his public career
was at an end. He was prominently
named for the senatOrship in 1881, but
the supporters of Thomas G. Plat
swept him out of their path.

One Reason Why.

The West Randolph Herald, in
speaking of the next candidate for
governor, asks "why the people don't
rise and kick the politicians all out OF
the ring, and elect men like Mr.. Bill
lings to Office, men who will honor the
state and are something more than
good fellows 2" One reason is because
the "men who will honor the state"
will not stOOp to the methods of the
politicians. They can afford to do
without Office, the politicians cannot,
and the "dear people" have something
else to do besides ''fixing" primaries
or packing conventions. Hence the
politicians in this state, with a few no.
table exceptions, elect themselves TO
Office without any great difficulty.

Business Methods.

Here is another contribution to the
advertising problem. A prominent
newspaper advertising agent in this
state has just issued a circular to ad-
vertisers announcing that he will in
sert advertisements in "a of the pa
pers of this state, the names of which
are given, at One-half publishers rates.
This agent makes the offer on cash
basis "because of the extremely low
rates named, and the small margin of
profit to me-" Local advertisers in the
towns where these "a papers are pub
lished must enjoy paying full rates
when advertising agents freely offer to
take advertising for their columns at
just half published rates, admitting at
the same time that even this reduction
admits of a margin of profit to the
agent. Business seems to be business
everywhere except in the newspaper
Offices

LYNDON.

Interest this week has conferred in
the anniversary exercises at the Insti-
tute, which have been very successful
and interesting. The sermon before
the graduating class was delivered
Sunday afternoon by the principal,
Rev. w. E. Ranger. The sermon was
an able one and we'll delivered, and
there was large attendance.
The prize declarations by the mid
die class Monday evening were given
in Institute chapel and were very in
teresting. The committee of award
consisted of Rev. Mr.. BOdwell, Mr..
Sampson, and Franklin A. Dakin of
st. Johnsbury academy. The first
prize was awarded Herbert E. Walter
of East Burke, whose selection was
Will Carleton's "The Lightning Rod
Dispenser )" Carrie S. Donaldson of
Lyndon Centre won the first prize
among the young ladies, her selection
being "The Last Hymn" The second
prize was taken by Miss Hattie Newell,
of East Hardwick, who recited extracts
from the Widow Bedott papers. The
audience completely filled the hall.
The address Tuesday evening was
by Rev. H. Bernard Carpenter of Bos-
ton on "Men and Money" 1t was an
able and brilliant effort and deserved
a larger audience than was present.
The exercises and examinations of
classes occupied the time Tuesday and
Wednesday. The exercises of the
graduating class are held this morning
and the closing concert comes this eve
ming in Music hall.
